Does anyone else think that this societal craze for wealth is a disease? True, anyone can get rich, but not everyone can. There isn't enough to go around. The burning desire to get rich isn't natural either, it is the result of constant marketing campaigns that persuade us to buy products we don't really need and media that worships the wealthy. I think it leads to a lot of dissatisfied people who would otherwise be content with a comfortable existence.
